  • Strong communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively with PEs, PMs, clients, and permitting agencies.

  • Desire to learn, take initiative, and grow within a startup environment.

Preferred Experience
  • Internship or prior work experience in land development, municipal engineering, or site development.

  • Hands-on experience with Civil 3D beyond coursework (surfaces, profiles, pipe networks).

  • Exposure to Central Texas development codes or permitting processes.

  • Familiarity with hydrologic and hydraulic modeling tools (HEC-HMS, HEC-RAS, StormCAD, etc.).

  • Interest in sustainable design, infrastructure planning, or emerging land development trends.
